THE CROSS

… Because the word de la Cruz is madness to which they are lost; but to that they are saved, that is to say, it is to be able of God. 1Corintios 1:18.

The Cross is doubtless the symbol of the Christianity par excellence, because in her the Son of God died, our Mr. Jesus Christ, reviving to the third day. That one symbol of the Roman curse for death of the criminal, the torment log, would become symbol of the life and the resurrection, in the symbol of the work of the Son of God, of the pardon that God grants by the sin of the man, of that create in Him. So it would be the relevance and the sanctity of their meaning that the same Pedro would fight with its twigs, when crucified to him, to die of another form, because it was not considered worthy to die like his Gentleman, and crucified mouth down to him. In the century IV Constantino it abolished the crucifixion in the Roman empire that governed, when becoming to the Christianity and by Christian mercy.

The cross has become symbol of spiritual health, but it has turned it to the world into symbol of medical health: the ambulances, the pharmacies, the Red Cross, the medicine kits, etc. The Cross is, then, symbol of the salvation of Christ, but also the cross is the life of the Christian who preaches the Gospel for salvation and that puts its life by the brothers in the faith of Christ. The fruits de la Cruz are the Salvation, the Gospel and the Church.

 

The Cross. the objective of Christ in this world

The Cross of Christ, more than a symbol, is the objective to conquer in the greater war of History: the souls for the eternity. It is in her who Christ obtains the crown of justice, the crown of the Kingdom of God, the victory on the death, the pardon by the sin and the fulfillment of the Law. Where it abre the door, the way and the life to the eternity for us who we do not deserve to Him. The resurrection emanates de la Cruz of the Calvary. Without the work de la Cruz of Christ we would have hope neither in this life nor in the eternal one.  

Christ in the Cross was raised like the bronze serpent, that is symbol of the Law of God. Juan 3:14. In the cross, the feet and the hands are nailed, immobilized. This it is the meaning de la Cruz, to be disabled to make our will, to refuse to one same one. If our feet are nailed in the cross, we cannot go to where we want. In the same way, if our hands are nailed in the cross, we can make what we want, neither protect themselves, nor defend themselves; nothing, we were at the mercy of God. The total cancellation of I. We will take our cross to follow the Teacher, every day and will share Its yoke?

The liberation of the sin and of brings back to consciousness it accuses that us by the Law of God, that is the Ministry of the Condemnation and the Death, allows us to also live for Christ and our fellow taking our cross like disciples and sharing the yoke, fulfilling therefore the call Law of Christ:

… 2Sobrellevad loads of the other, and you obey therefore the law of Christ… … You watch how with great letters I write to you of my own hand. 12Todos those that want to please in the meat, these force to you that you circuncidéis, not to only suffer persecution because of the cross of Christ. 13Porque nor the same that are circuncidan even keep the law; but they love that you circuncidéis, to gloriar itself in your meat. 14Pero far is of me gloriar to me, but in the cross of our Mr. Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world. 15Porque in Christ Jesus neither the circuncisión is worth nothing, nor the incircuncisión, but a new creation. 16Y to which platform according to this rule, peace and mercy is to them, and to Israel de God. Gálatas 6.

The character of God and the Cross

Although God is the God de la Cruz, also the God of the laughter is God, yes brother. The Gentleman is God de Isaac that means laughter, joy of the Spirit. God de Abraham (the faith), God de Isaac (the laughter or the joy) and God de Jacob who is Israel (the one that fights with God to obtain Its blessing). God of the faith, God of the joy and God of the spiritual soldier. It means just like it shows Jesus to us in Itself: I am I walk, the Truth and the Life. The way is to leave Egypt of the hand of the Gentleman, the faith of Abraham. The Truth is to have the faith of Abraham to give to Isaac. The joy, to give to God our joy, to sanctify it for Him, to enjoy us in the Cross Christ. And not to enter Sodoma, the world of the religion to our traditional or national taste of men; the world of the delights and the love to the money and to our own projects, before those of the Gentleman, and to remove to the brothers from there. And finally the Life comes by the spiritual fight, the one that Christ in the Cross battles. Of Their example, we, like Him, took our cross, intransferable personnel and. Abraham, Isaac and Israel: The Father, the Son and the Spirit Santo, along with the Faith, the Joy, and Intercesión.

The joy or complacencia of God is Christ fulfilled who it in the Cross: … Your you are My loved Son, in you I have complacencia… Lucas 3:22.

 

The Cross like symbol

Battle of enemy spiritual is so to deny Cross that has run rivers of red arguing that was not a cross, that was a tree, that was a post, with a “patibulum� crosspiece, that was “the torment log�, really, all type of arguments to deny the form of that one instrument of torment used widely by Rome to execute the maximum pain and that historical and is amply documented. Jesus Christ already in His lessons, that we can read in Gospels, used the symbol de la Cruz to talk about to His death and the allegorical meaning of the load and spiritual death to refuse to one same one by love to the others, the persecution that brings to announce the Kingdom of God in the kingdom of this world.

Many, inside and outside the Christianity argue that a simple cross, without image, is an idol, but what symbolizes a cross is not just like an image to which it is prayed or it said. What it is not certain, and therefore is not due to teach, is that the cross is an amulet. You will become image neither you will incline to her you will adore nor, is what the Second Order of the Law of God in Exodus 20 and Deuteronomio 5 teaches it, that Rome eliminated with a stroke of the pen, changing the orders and altering them, turning them into orders of men, not of God. One is not making images, and without a doubt the Christianity has been doing and for many, to which they take in procession, they use in the oration and they peregrinate to visit them and to give cultured, which nor they see them, nor hear: Isaiah 44:9, and which the devil feeds in its strategy to separate to the Christian from the center of the Gospel that is alive Christ.

Special images, icons, crossings; there already the subject is weakened. Some branches of the cristiandad teach to pray to certain cristos, more powerful than others, just as they do with Maria and the rest of the saints, etc. Never the Gentleman or they taught this. But when we spoke of a simple cross as symbol we did not speak of an idol, unless the believer attributes powers to him, which returns to fall in the idolatry. There is famous crossings like the one of Jerusalem, the one of the templarios, the one of Caravaca, the Egyptian, and a long etc. that are only that, amulets to which their carriers attribute powers, something that to Christ does not please of course. Christ already spoke de la Cruz to us before being crucified, in his more spiritual meaning.

In order to trench the question de la Cruz like symbol, which is clear is that whatever sees a cross immediately it thinks about Christ, the Church and the Christianity. The cross is a life form, of negation of one same one, life by God and the fellow, in opposition to the nature of the man, and who being born again from the Spirit of God can be felt and only be wished. Many Christians again allege to have been born, but with its form to try to the others they deny the cross, because they do not look for the one of Christ nor the one of its fellow, but his. By the others, a simple cross is and will be symbol of the Christianity and Christ.

 

FOUR VISIONS DE LA CRUZ IN SIMÓN OF CIRENE

First it is before the imposition to take the cross of Jesus until the Calvary, what reaction we have when we must take the gospel to the others, and when they request aid to us. Second it is the attitude of the malefactor who insult to Christ, by pride, incredulity. Third it is the attitude of the other malefactor reprimanding to him and asking who Jesus remembered him when Jesus in His kingdom came, and received by answer that today would be with Him in the paradise. These two men are the two attitudes of the man before the Day of the Judgment: one, the one to despise the salvation by the single faith, and the other the one to be clear sinful, to regret and to cry out mercy. Fourth it is before the Cross of Christ who gives to his life by us and our personal relation with our Salvador from the moment for understanding that He has died in our place, that we would have to be, and not He, those that we were in that one Cross. All of them begin in a street, in Jerusalem, does almost two thousand years, when the Son of God was loaded with a cross that would take next to a man, represents who us all, Simón de Cirene.

The load de la Cruz is the yoke of Christ, who invites to take to us with Him, of who he describes to the same Gentleman his lightness to us and facility to take due to the power greater than gives God us: the love of Christ. The yoke is a wood piece, that as all we know serves so that two oxen of load throw together. Then, that yoke is the same cross put in horizontal where the two parts that would serve to nail the hands of the Mesías, were put on shoulders of each one of the two men, Jesus and Simón, when this one was forced to help Jesus to take Its cross. That one obligation would become for Him a privilege.

It is not necessary to say that our cross does not save to us, but the one of the Lamb of God, Yahshua the Mesías, and which therefore the salvation do not contribute our aid to it, our testimony nor our spiritual effort, but the life of the given and revived Son of God. But Jesus has left for His wife, the Church, a part of the load, as the Scripture says: … Now I enjoy to me in which I suffer by you, and fulfill in my meat which lacks of the afflictions of Christ by its body, that is the church. Colosenses 1:24.

To take the cross of Christ means to take Its testimony, to preach the Gospel, to make sacrifice of praise, fruit of lips that confess their name, Hebrew 13:15, to be the Earth salt and the light of the world, to proclaim Their work between the men, to speak in the places and circumstances in which nobody speech of God but of the vanities, the profit and the meat, to defend by love of them the salvation of the soul and the repentance, to publish a type of conversation that it does not like to the human mind, because the sentence, because it announces its lapsing and nonsense to him. In addition, the cross of Christ implies to take the suffering that It takes seeing the souls lose itself because they detest Him to Him and, to see the humanity destroy itself, to the people being damaged mutually, to dominate, by envies, by being able, to prevail, to hate; quite the opposite to the love of God, all that has been nailed in the Cross in which they accept to Him like Salvador, changing its hearts. The Cross of Christ implies that we will be detested, persecuted, some killed, and all this tribulation is for the glory of the Gentleman, something different from the gospel of the well-being, the economic prosperity and the blessings that today the multitudes in some church-spectacle look for. The Christians we are called to take our own cross by love of Christ, and by love of the brothers, we see in Gálatas 6:2 it and 3:16 and 17 1Juan, this is our Priesthood of Melquisedec, priest for always, our Mr. Jesus Christ.

 

CROSS DEFINITION OF THE SPIRITUAL DICTIONARY OF THE josephmorrisministries.org BIBLE

Cross: The one of Christ it is exclusively of Him so that when dying in her it won to the death and it would give the life us. Our death came by our sin, that Christ expía like Lamb of God. Also it is the load that takes by others of daily intercession, like eternal priest Melquisedec. The town of God is invited to take each its own cross, the one to be arranged to be detested by the world giving testimony of Christ, which can even take to the cross; to other brothers it took to them, and others to the circus or other persecutions, we are arranged. Our spiritual circumstances because of the faith, and also are that one offers to God its soul to him like alive sacrifice by a brother, so that this one in return receives the presence of God, is taking its cross, the loads of the other: there is no major love that this. It takes every day your own cross by Christ and the Church.

Mateo 10:38, 16:24, Juan 19:17, 1Corintios 1:18, Efesios 2:16.

CONCLUSION

The symbol de la Cruz is like recognizes it to the humanity for 2,000 years. Christ changed to the meaning Roman de la Cruz, by the de la Cruz of Christ, the one of damn and unworthy death by the one of expiatoria death and blessing, the one of despicable death by the one of life among deads. The Cross of Christ.

Both thieves to each side in two crossings are the two attitudes of the man before the Judgment, to resist or to surrender and to apologize, and Jesus, our “paracletos� lawyer and consolador, has not faced the judgment from a chair of lawyer but from another one, although also it is work of hand of a carpenter, the eternal Carpenter; from the Cross. In the same condemnation that we deserve the humanity, and from the same suffering, it exerts our defense that is not other than the faith in Its work in the Cross of the Calvary. This we preached taking our cross.

We do not have to forget that Jesus is seated to the right hand of the power of God, not in the Cross of the Calvary, that although seems evident, every day and every year they are million Christians who look for Christ in the image de la Cruz, instead of to look for and to pray to, and with, alive Christ. The effect de la Cruz for almost 2,000 years has been eternal, and Christ lives, and is between us every day until the end of the world. Mateo 28:20.

The Cross of Christ is the Gospel that we preached, that is madness for the world. He carries out it to Christ and announced we it. The Cross is the fulfillment of the justice of God. He fulfilled it to Christ, and received we it by the faith, which we announced like the good news. The yoke is our ministry between the brothers reflected in Gálatas 6:2 but the cross is our Earth mission, to reach our objective that are the souls. Our tool and leaves from the sword of the Spirit, the Bible, the Word of God. The cross is, then, persecution by justice for salvation, love to the fellow. The center of the message of the Gospel is what it happens in the Cross of the Calvary by the work of the Son of God, dying and reviving, paying by our sins, and this Obra is fulfilled; It announces it, it preaches the Gospel and it saves the souls for Christ. … Elí, Elí, Lick Sabactani… Fact is… Amen, Mr. Jesus, yours are the Kingdom, the power and the glory by the centuries of the centuries. Amen. The Gentleman comes.
